Biotech CEOs to FDA: Don’t Let Politics Override Science on Abortion Pill
Biotech CEOs warn Trump's FDA ignoring science and evidence on mifepristone’s safety would hurt public trust and U.S. drug approval.

Junk science should never drive policy. See my interview by Ms Magazine about our biotech efforts to combat misinformation and poor science being used to drive critical health decisions. It's bad for science, patients, the industry, and national competitveness. msmagazine.com/2025/07/10/b...

When people say 'politics is too divisive now,' what they really mean is 'I was more comfortable when certain groups suffered quietly.'

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Good evening!
Great article from @kylelahucik.bsky.social of @endpts.com. 2024 biotech megaround analysis. Only 15% of companies receiving megarounds are led by female CEOs. We at the #BiotecCEOSisterhood are working hard to change that. #BioSky #science #innovation #patientsfirst
Biotech startups landed 96 megarounds ($100m+) in 2024, according to an @endpts.com tally, nearing a 2021 peak.
I took a look behind the numbers and the 94 companies (Metsera and Seaport each did two rounds) that bagged the large financings

We desperately need “Bro Whisperers” like Dean; wonderful seeing a young man passionately defend liberal values. I’ll be following and supporting!
Dean Withers argues online with right-wing stars like Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro, debating issues like abortion, inflation and whether President-elect Trump’s policies would benefit the middle class.
